I saw a box of plastic Chaos Warriors in my local game store last week, and they're not a patch on the classic Oldhammer ones.<br /><br />Hope you stay safe and well, matey!

I'm back in lockdown (no going out!) till the start of December, and it now appears that I may not be able to have the new Vaccine either as I have a reduced immune system, so all good here (haha!) ;)<br /><br />Cheers Roger.Dick Garrisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01653744597413710281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7720801445504663403.post-42482880911959864312020-11-10T19:00:43.902-05:002020-11-10T19:00:43.902-05:00Thanks, Dave!

If I can get it to work then yay, if not, well I was going to strip the paint anyway.<br /><br />I've been looking at painted Slaangor examples online and there aren't that many, but from what I've seen I have a much better idea of how to do them now.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08624491160014232874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7720801445504663403.post-13746569221912785252020-11-10T11:26:51.413-05:002020-11-10T11:26:51.413-05:00Love your care bears Matt ! LOL the models you'...Love your care bears Matt ! LOL the models you've chose are a great eclectic mix of old models and should look great as a band once painted. Have you considered wetbrushing bone over the fur areas and then a light drybrush of white to define the shape, so you keep the underlying colour with the offwhite fur that's described in the book ? I think it could look really striking with the different base colours but unify with the top two coloursDave Stonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13398737478468720431noreply@blogger.com
